Akagi Yahiru

"My memories are in the future. I don't know who I used to be, but I know who I will be. I am the 13.5th Generation of Yokoyama Yui!"

- Yui's first introduction as successor

Yahiru Akagi ( やひる) is a member of AKB0048's Team K. She is a successor, holding the name of Yui Yokoyama the 13.5th (13.5 ). Prior discovering her actual identity and succeding, she used the name Akane Kashita.

Yui is also known as Yuihan (ゆいはん), AkaYui (あかゆい) and Miyaunt (ミイアウント). Yui is a calm girl who has lost all her memories about herself. She isn't related by blood with Miyagi but adopted into her family by her grandmother. Later on, it was revealed that she is Kaoru's childhood friend who was presumed dead by her.

Appearance
Yui has long, red hair. Her preferd hairstyle is a single ponytail. She's almost never seen with another hair style, even while sleeping. The hair in her ponytail is a bit wavy. Yui's eyes are in a wine red hue. Like other members of AKB0048, Yui has got heart-shaped light reflections in her eyes and on her hair. She has got those reflections as far as she remembers. Her skin is pale. She wears glasses to read.

Yui's commonly seen in sophiastic clothes, even more after becoming friends with Paruru. Even though her favourite colours are red and magenta, she doesn't wear them constant. She's also wearing green very often. Yui likes traditional japanese clothing very much but doesn't wear them in her daily life.

Personality
Yui is a rather calm and collected person. She's not saying much and stays in the background. However, she tries to help others as good as she can. She also makes plans before doing something as she loves strategy games and chess, just like random and trivial facts in general. She's a bad louser though and doesn't like being wrong. Yui worries about several things and usually has problems with talking about those. She tends to only think about those and not do anything. She is a polite person, althrough not as polite as Alisa, but sometimes leaves her common personality if its to defend a friend; mainly Paruru when her stage persona has gotten her into trouble.

Yui doesn't tell much about herself when meeting someone for the first time. This comes from the fact that she prefers others to speak but also from the fact that she doesn't have much to tell. She's often seen wondering who she actually is as she worries about this a bit. She loves to read Sci-Fi novels and those influence her thoughts too. This is the reason why some of her theories are quite weird and awkward. Despite considering Sci-Fi as her favorite genre, she reads all kinds of books.

Skills
Despite being average in singing, Yui quickly remembers lyrics, melodies, choreographies and similar things. She doesn't have a special method to do so, she simply quickly remembers those. She is an average actress but has no problems with remembering lines at all.

She likes to play chess and shougi a lot and is quite good in both chess and shougi. She is also a fast reader and quickly understands new things, but has a rather small knowledge about the world in general, likely due to her amnesia.

Thanks to the time, she has spend with Paruru, Yui has developed a quite good sense of fashion.

As a result of Orchestra, Yui knows how to play trumpet. She quickly learned it and is, compared to the other members who learned how to play an instrument, quite skilled.

She is fluent in English, French and Japanese. For a long time, she didn't know why but nowadays assumes that it's because she is from Winostar. She is better in Japanese than in English and her English is better than her French. She is able to understand all languages and speak accentless though. She does to grammar mistakes in French though.

History
Yui's past is a mystery. One day, she was found unconcious on a little meadow on Tekistar by Shouta, Miyagi's little brother. Once she had woken up, she did not remember anything that had happened to her, or who she even was. Meeting Shouta's grandmother, the family offered her to live with them until she would remember something, or someone would report her missing. This never happened, and eventually, she was adopted into the family onto Shouta's grandmother's wish.

Yui didn't feel like wanting to stay on Tekistar though, as she believed to be a burden to the family. Eventually, she decided to try to join 0048; if she'd become an idol and famous, her family might try to contact her. While she was accepted into 00, she never found her family.

Shortly after joining, Yui succeeded. The succession fever happened while the auditons already, and even knocked her out around the end of those. Her concert was also the debut of her generation. It was named Akane Ressonance, a reference to her name's meaning.
